Especially for the multimedia exhibition, a huge pavilion will be built right in the center of Konyushennaya Square. Inside, visitors will expect large-scale projections of reproductions of paintings by the great artist, and not the paintings themselves. The Van Gogh Alive the experience exposition is designed to showcase Van Gogh’s entire career through the smallest details of his works that came to life on the screens. This revolutionary symbiosis of art and the latest technology will help viewers better understand the expressive methods of the artist and get into the atmosphere of his work.

Van Gogh’s letters to his brother Theo and some biographical notes made by the artist complement the exhibition. The exhibition will open on May 26, and it will be possible to visit it until the end of September.

Creativity and the life path of Van Gogh has recently been subjected to close attention and analysis. In Britain, an animated film is shot about the artist, and in France, versions of his death are actively discussed. Recently, a large-scale exhibition of the original works of the artist’s paintings opened in Paris, a new theory of his suicide aroused increased interest in him. The name of the exposition, located in the Musee d’Orsay Museum, speaks for itself - "A man brought by society to suicide." The main idea of ​​the exhibition is the assumption of the French playwright Antonin Artaud that the artist committed suicide due to the fact that society officially recognized him as crazy and rejected his paintings. This version is put forward in one of the texts of the playwright, dated 1947. There Arto writes that there is ample evidence that Vincent Van Gogh was not at all ill. The artist was in his right mind, but was driven to despair by the prevailing public opinion and himself and his works.
